Rotarians Help "Paint the Town"

The threat of rain didn't keep South Sacramento Rotarians from participating in the annual "Paint the Town." Working with CSUS student volunteers, they began early in the morning, and by the time the rains came, they had prepped the front yard and installed sod, planted a flower garden, removed a broken window, and built most of a fence at a home in the Fruitridge area of South Sacramento. Determined to finish, the fence builders ignored the rain and made sure the fence was complete before packing up for the day. Pictured from left to right in the picture at the left are J. R. Springer, Barbara Tracy, Krysia Falltrick, Barry Hogan, Anne Hasbrook, Jim Tracy, and Michael DiGrazia. Ed and Edie Trujillo joined the group for part of the morning. Also pictured above are Krysia and Michael working on the fence and J.R, who had experience working with glass, removing the window.
